lyrics

don't play around

chorus
mcmurtry don't play around like i use to
when push comes to shove
gotta keep my mouth shut
baby how 'bout you

mathew spends them nickles and dimes
like hundred dollar bills
helpin' babies too special for crazy
government deals

aint a state in the union 'been crusin' thru
on easy street
fuckin' damn frackin' and backroom stabbin'
knocks me down on my knees

chorus

california wanna be's and midwest muscles
stick close to the ground
feedin' the famine in my backyard
non profit town

nine miles deep there's a pile o' cash
headin' overseas
gotta fill up my tank shake hands at the bank
goin' back east

chorus

annie's settin' in jail for another twelve years
yaknow it coulda been me
damn drugs and guns and one night lovin' gonna set you free

harry's born ready for the end o' time
he's a millionaire
when they come up from atlanta to steal his food
you gonna feel the fire

chorus

she was only fourteen in '65
you know a change is comin'
twenty-six stiches in the back o' her head
On a bridge in selma

chorus
